This thread reminds me of my grandfather, what a gentle, kind man but with the most quirky sense of humor sometimes. He use to say things that were kind of mean, teasing, thinking it was funny. When he saw it upset you he use to say - "It was with my mouth I was saying it not with my heart I was meaning it." Guess he just did not understand that it was with my heart I was hearing it? Not everyone can look out of someone else's eyes or everyones eyes and see the many ways that something can be perceived by others. You try harder maybe when you remember listening with your own heart. Lets remember the day and everyone's different senses of humors. Some you mention I got a great laugh over, one I did not think was funny, and it reminded me of grandfather whom I still love. IMHO April Fool is a lot tamer than it use to be. But there is always going to be that spirit of devilment to it. Take not offence at our differences on this day. Ignore those things said without thinking unless they really do great harm to you personally. Just MHO of the day. :-)
